oil is used in an engine to lubricate and help keep engine components cool so if you run engine with no oil, the moving parts get hot. when the parts get hot, they expand. when they expand, they bind up on other parts when this happens the parts get more hotter and then basically the parts can weld together. this is caused siezing .then your engine is screwed
